The STD Map of America

RentApplication.com has created an interactive map showing the STD rates in cities across the United States.

How Bad are STD Rates in Your City uses data from the CDC for 2013. Each city's STD rate is normalized against the city's population. The city of Montgomery, AL has the highest rate of STD's in the United States with a rate of 1899.20 per 100,000 people.

If you select a city on the map you can view the number of cases of Chlamydia, Gonorrhea and Syphilis reported in the city. According to ReantApplication.com the military helped a number of cities rank highly, with Norfolk
Naval Base, Ft. Hood, and Ft. Bragg all helping their cities to break into the top 10.
